Since Terry Reedy (the IDLE maintainer) responded and refuted (some of?) the OP's assertions, I guess the case is settled. But that's not the same thing as threatening a poster with some accusations of CoC violation, just because the poster happened to use a familiar expression. Personally, I don't want people to be intimidated away from contributing because their English expression differs from that of the dominant (or, rather, most vocal and/or better organized) fraction.
